In the most visible sign yet that the proposed Daniel
Island Performing Arts Center (DIPAC) will come to
fruition, a crowd of supporters and dignitaries gathered
on Friday, August 26 on a grassy field on Island Park
Drive to celebrate the unveiling of a new display show-
casing a rendering of the facility. The two-sided sign,
donated by Johnston Signs, was erected in the location
the DIPAC will be built, adjacent to the UBS building.
Speaking at the festivities were DIPAC Founder
Mary Gould, Charleston Mayor John Tecklenburg,
Berkeley County Supervisor Bill Peagler, and Barbara
McLaughlin, Community Services Manager for the
Daniel Island Property Owners Association.
“Tonight we are celebrating the first major financial
goal of raising over $5 million to purchase the land
and also begin construction on the land right behind
us,” said Gould, addressing the crowd. “This is indeed
cause for celebration!”
The landmark facility, to include a 400-seat proscenium theatre and a 99-seat blackbox theatre, will house
Gould’s South of Broadway Theatre Company. In addition, it will showcase Broadway-caliber productions
that would be eligible for Tony Awards.

DIPAC celebrates the unveiling of a new sign
From dipac on PAGE 01
“This fine facility and the variety of arts
programming it will bring will be a most
welcome addition for all of our residents and
our visitors and will serve as a major event
space for those who live, work and play here on
Daniel Island,” added McLaughlin, speaking on
behalf of the Daniel Island Company. “…Daniel Island is truly the epicenter geographically
of the Charleston tri-county area and will be
the perfect location for a regionally recognized
performing arts center like DIPAC.”
The DIPAC facility is also set to achieve the
coveted League of Resident Theaters (LORT)
designation, making it the first of its kind in
South Carolina, as well as the first performing
arts center in Berkeley County.
“This is an opportunity for us as business
people, as community leaders, as residents, to
enhance your quality of life,” noted Peagler
in his remarks. “…You heard me say several
times the motto I coined when I first took office - Berkeley County is open for business and
Berkeley County means business. But now, I
think I’ll have to change that a bit…Berkeley
County is open for business - and the arts!”
Mayor Tecklenburg commended Gould on
her long-standing vision for the facility and her
dedication to the cause.
“A community is not complete without the

To be fair, most suggestions are well-intentioned (“I just wanted to help.”). But too often,
they’re unwelcome intrusions in a conversation. When a person complains about their job,
they don’t necessarily want someone to tell
them that it’s time to start looking for a new
one. When a person struggles in a relationship,
they don’t want someone to tell them that it’s
time to find a new mate. And when a person
reflects on a recent poor showing – in the
boardroom or the ballfield – they don’t really
want someone to tell them what to do the next
time around.

Parents: Living in the Land
of USS
Parents, at every age, are adept at offering USSs (some years ago, on the way to
school, I asked our youngest daughter to
recall a recent USS from my lips; it took
her less than two seconds to recount the
latest!).
As parents, we live in the Land of USS
for good reason – we care about our children, we want to protect them, keep them
safe, happy and healthy. We suffer when
they hurt (emotionally or physically) and
we worry about their future. But instead
of waiting for the question (“What do you
think I should do?”), we rush ahead and
miss an opportunity to just listen.
So the next time a young one is airing
it out, try listening as long as you can,
then pose these five unambiguous words:
“Would you like a suggestion?” Chances
are they’ll respond with a quick “No,
thanks,” but wait five minutes, or an hour
or so, and you just might find they swing
back and say: “OK, what is it, what was
your suggestion?”
Go ahead, listen in on any conversation and notice how often a statement
(not a question!) is followed by a suggestion (“I’m so cold,” “Would you like a
sweater?”). Then start noticing how often
you do the same.
You just might be surprised.

In other news, Big Brother volunteer
and Daniel Island resident Steve Latour
urged his neighbors to join the organization and to serve as a big brother or sister.
A structure housing a concessions station, restrooms, and a scorer’s booth for sporting
events was almost complete.
In the September 1, 2011 edition of the paper in the
top story we reported that Governors Park was in the last
phase of construction, including a structure housing a
concessions station, restrooms, and a scorer’s booth for
sporting events.
Our centerfold feature story was about how the Vroman
family of Daniel Island went gluten free after their daughter was diagnosed with Celiac Disease and how they and
others go about finding gluten free options.
Daniel Island Girls in Training,

Local homebrewers headed to the big league
Katherine Smith
katherine@thedanielislandnews.com
Just two years ago, Hank Hanna and Pearce
Fleming, both residents of Daniel Island, were
in the beginning stages of what would become
a passion for home brewing beer. Earlier this
year, in a May issue of The Daniel Island
News, Hanna explained the home brew process
and why it had become much more than just
a hobby for the duo. Having entered and won
some awards at several competitions over this
past year, their passion has surpassed what they
could have imagined and quite possibly may
bring their brew to the national level.
“Two competition wins made us eligible to
team up with a commercial brewery and send
one of our award winning beers to the Great
American Beer Festival (GABF) in Denver,
Colorado in October,” said Hanna.
Deemed to be the largest (and most prestigious) beer festival in the country, the GABF
competition will likely receive more than 7,000
entries in the commercial brewery competition.
Hanna and Fleming will be entering the ProAm competition, where the odds of winning
are much better.
“The Pro-Am portion of the competition,
however, is even more prestigious (than the
commercial portion). The Pro-Am gives home
brewers (the AM) the opportunity to team up
with a commercial brewer (the PRO) to brew
their homebrew on a large-scale system. There
are only 96 entries accepted and to be eligible
as a homebrewed you must have won first
place in a Beer Judge Certification Program
(BJCP) sanctioned homebrew competition, and
you must be asked by a commercial brewer to
participate,” explained Hanna.
And that is just what happened. Ryan Coker,
owner and Head Brewer at Revelry Brewing
Co., located in downtown Charleston, invited
them to brew with Revelry for the Pro-Am.
When Hanna heard the news, it was a nobrainer.
“We knew the guys at Revelry very well
and jumped at the opportunity. We were very
excited to say the least,” Hanna said.
Currently the duo has been fine-tuning their
beer hoping that it will stand out at the competition.
“Our beer is called Wise One and is a

Bavarian wheat beer. Pearce and I first brewed
Wise One earlier this year for the American
Homebrewers Association National Competition. I had spent a lot of time researching the
style and tasting several different commercially
available options to try and figure out which
one I liked best and how to create a beer that
was consistent with the standards associated
with the style. Hefeweizen is known for having
almost no hop presence, but instead a subtle
clove character with notes of banana…. (Wise
One) has a very slight clove presence, but the
banana character is in your face. With that being said, teaming up with a professional brewer
like Ryan Coker meant that we would also be
blending our styles with his expertise. The beer
that we brewed with Revelry is much more
complex in that the banana aroma is the first
thing that you will notice, followed by a subtle
hint of clove character in the initial taste, and
then just a kiss of banana flavor as you finish
the sip,” said Hanna.

The Changing Work Environment
Part III: Providing Choice
management
moment
Doug Dickerson
“I believe happiness is a choice. Some days
it is a very difficult choice.” – Steve Gleason
Our three part series on the changing work
environment was inspired by findings in the
Staples Advantage Workplace Index (http://
bit.ly/1ULVQr7). Findings in the report reveal
that half of workers state feeling overworked
is motivating them to look for a new job, 62%
say wellness programs are a selling point when
looking for a new job, but only 35% actually
have a wellness program at their current job, 3
out of 4 respondents say their employers don’t
give them access to the latest technology to
do their job efficiently. You can read more by
clicking on the link and reading the full report.
In part III of our series (in part one we talked
about providing flexibility and in part two we
discussed providing autonomy) we discuss the
importance of providing choice. Employees are
not willing to give 100% to a job where they
feel trapped. They want opportunity and they
want choice.
What does it look like? In the changing
work environment, employees want to know
that they have choices. In this new environment
management is not dictating ‘how’ everything
gets done. Employees are given the ‘what’ and
the ‘why’, and then they are given the opportunity to make decisions and design how
their work gets done to meet the goals of the
company. In addition, they are empowered
with the training and resources they need to be
successful.
Why is it important? Employees want to
know that they are making a valuable contribution to something bigger than themselves; they
want to feel truly invested in their work. When
employees have choices, they have a sense of
control, which shows them that their input is
valuable. It tells them they are trusted and are
important.
Not long ago Glassdoor published its list
of the Best Places to Work 2016 (http://bit.
ly/1lN0I2p). Topping the list was Airbnb. An
employee review for MindBody (#14) in the
Glassdoor article writes, “It’s a culture of happiness! I’ve never been in such a positive environment. Management encourages you not only
professionally, but in personal aspects of life
too. So thankful to work for such an amazing
company!” That sounds to us like a company
that understands the value of their employees
and wants them to succeed.
How do we do it? Providing choice requires
management to let go of the control they have
clung to in the past. Old habits can be hard to
break; here are six ACTION steps to help you
think through your current operations and to
embrace providing choice.
Accountability – The ebb and flow of an
organization that provides flexibility, autonomy,
and choice hinges on accountability. Regardless of what the organizational structure looks
like or how teams are assembled it all comes
down to mutual accountability if it is going to
succeed.
Collaborate – In this changing work environment collaboration may take on a new look
as well. Your box approach to thinking may
now look more like a circle that makes room
for more people, new ideas, and greater potential. If your workplace environment changes
so too must the way you work with others also
change.
Train – John Maxwell said, “The people’s
capacity to achieve is determined by their
leader’s ability to empower.” This is so true in
the changing work environment. Training is essential not just for your success today but how
you will look and operate five years from now
and beyond.
Inspire – What your people need to see
as they embrace a new work environment is
greater ownership, greater opportunity for
growth, and more control over their future.
Inspire your people to the possibilities before
them and remind them of it often.
Opportunity – The changing workplace
environment can be frightening for people who
have no voice in the direction they are going
or have not bought-in to the vision. If one’s
opportunity is not clear to them they will be the
last to embrace change. Be vocal, be clear, and
be out front with the opportunities that exist and
for the ones they will create.
Now – The time for creating this new workplace environment is now. And we would like
to remind you of what we advised in part one
of this series. Take baby steps and tackle one
or two small changes that you can implement
right away. Be intentional about your changes
and make them gradually. Include your people
when charting the course. But get started!

Back on November 1, 2010, City of Charleston Mayor Joe Riley, City Councilmembers Gary White and
Aubry Alexander, and Daniel Island resident Mac McBride joined several guests in officially turning
the first dirt at a groundbreaking ceremony for Governors Park. A Recreation Center is the next big
development planned for Governors Park as part of an Amendment to the Development Agreement
reached between the City, the Daniel Island Company and other related companies.
“It’s not set in stone,” he added. “We don’t know exactly
w the site will sit, but this will give people a feel for what
expect.”
As per the amendment agreement, approximately $5.3
llion will be re-allocated from a previously proposed
istrict Park South” to the new recreation center in Goverrs Park.
“The POA worked with the City and collectively deterned that the Community Center was the top priority for
idents,” added Jane Baker, vice president of community
vices for the Daniel Island Property Owners Associan. “The proposed amendment re-directs money that was
ginally to be used for a proposed large park on the south
e of the island near the SPA property for the purpose of
establishing a Community Center instead.”
According to White, additional funding sources have
eady been identified for the community center and may
lude private dollars. He expects the budget for the struce will be “somewhere north of $7 million,” but added that
y shortfalls could be met through a bonding opportunity.
“We’re prepared to do it and do it the right way and make
e it’s a facility that benefits the entire community,” added
hite.
As for what will take place inside the facility, resident
vey responses and ideas generated from the community
a series of public charrettes will serve as the blueprint for
ogramming.
“I can tell you, all of the things that I heard people say
they were looking for, and wanting, and needing…we should
be able to accomplish that with this facility,” White said.
“This agreement will also answer many of issues raised by
the residents in the city survey that was conducted last year,”
said Glenn Williman, president of the Daniel Island Neighborhood Association. “That exercise reaffirmed the need
for indoor recreation facilitates for youth and seniors, more
access to waterfront areas and water activities, and passive
park and additional walking and biking paths.”
Governors Park is the most logical choice for a location
for the facility, added White.
“It was the closest area that made sense from an ingress
and egress standpoint. It’s more central, parking is already
in place, and we already own the land. All of those things
coalesce and it’s the obvious place to do it.”
Williman called the planned addition of a community
center “a great day for Daniel Island and Charleston,” and
credited past DINA presidents and volunteers with “carrying
the torch” to see that the island’s recreational needs continue
to be met.
“This is a long awaited and very significant step in finalizing the development agreement between the city and the
Daniel Island community,” stated Williman. “DINA has tried
to keep this issue on the top of the city’s agenda for years.
Long before I came to Daniel Island, DINA recognized that
additional parks and recreation facilities were an important

component of our community that was a promise not kept.”
Other proposed changes to the Development Agreement
include the conveyance of a two-acre parcel of land along
the Wando River from the Daniel Island Company to the
City of Charleston, which would then convey the land to the
Daniel Island Town Association (DITA).
“This means the community will move one step closer to
having a waterfront park experience that meets community
standards,” added Baker.
Additionally, as per the amendment, a 52-acre city-owned
parcel on the island’s south side, near current Edgefield
Park, would be leased to DITA.
“DITA will determine a master plan for gradually turning
it into recreational land for community use,” said Baker.
Finally, the amendment also addresses the affordable
housing requirement put forth in the original Development
Agreement, noting that the provision, as well as several
park-related obligations, are “terminated, satisfied in full
or otherwise waived” and that those provisions would be
replaced by the newly revised agreement. When asked about
this portion of the document, Baker confirmed that the island’s affordable housing goals have been met in full.

Agreement, visit http://www.charleston-sc.gov/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/07192016-2210.

Gridiron Wrap Up: BE tops West Ashley, Hanahan falls to Andrews
PHILIP M. BOWMAN
The Bishop England football team is 2-0 for
the first time since 2007, and the Bishops’ fast
start is a result of doing it the hard way.
Bishop England topped West Ashley 21-16
Friday night at Jack Cantey Stadium thanks to
some late-game heroics.
With the score tied 14-14 and 69 seconds remaining in the game, talented quarterback Leo
Albano dropped back to pass on 4th and four,
but opted to keep the ball. He gained 21 yards
to keep the Bishops’ hopes alive.
The Bishops’ Christian Greavu scored from
20 yards out on the next play, taking a pitch and
outrunning the defense to the end zone to score
with 35 seconds left in the game.
Bishops linebacker Evan Phillips picked off a
pass following the kickoff. The Wildcats closed
out the scoring on a safety when Albano ran out
of the end zone on the final play of the game.
Bishop England coach John Cantey praised
the offense for its last-minute score. But he said
the defense was the key in beating West Ashley
for the first time since 2012, the year Bishop
England won its second straight state championship. The high-octane West Ashley offense
was held to 359 yards.
West Ashley, which rushed for 400 yards in
the season-opener, was missing star running
back Dexter Freeman, who suffered a concus-
per carry.
“This is a different Bishop England team
than the past couple years. The camaraderie we
have in our players and in our staff is showing,”
Cantey said.
Bishop England has another tough foe this
weekend. St. John’s travels to Cantey Stadium.
Bishop England’s Christian Greavu carries a defender and the ball into the end zone for
the Bishop’s late fourth quarter go ahead touchdown. Greavu had a big night. In addition to
scoring the winning touchdown on a 20-yard pitch and run play, the wide receiver also threw
a touchdown pass on the first play of the Bishop’s opening drive - a 36-yard double pass
from Albano to Greavu to Andrew Pizzo to take a 6-0 lead.
sion last week. The Wildcats managed 188
yards on the ground and 359 yards overall as
they dropped to 1-1.
“Our defense played very well,” Cantey said.
“We played as a team on defense. There were
no individuals. We played as a team.”
Bishop England scored on the first play of its
opening possession with a 36-yard double pass
from Albano to Greavu to Andrew Pizzo to take
a 6-0 lead.
Albano scored on a 2-yard run and Adam
Mikulsk kicked a field goal for the Bishops’
other scores.
Albano rushed for 132 yards, averaging 5.5
HANAHAN FALLS TO ANDREWS
Meanwhile, Hanahan came up on the wrong
end of a 42-35 decision to Andrews.
The Hawks fell to 1-1 and face a big challenge when they travel to Wando in Week 3 of
the season.
“We weren’t very excited to play,” Hanahan
coach Charlie Patterson said. “We didn’t have
any life. We didn’t play with enthusiasm, and
we’re not good enough to win when we don’t
play with that energy.”
Hanahan came up with the big plays. But
the Yellow Jackets responded with big plays of
their own.
“We’ve got a lot of work to do to get better,”
Patterson said. “We dropped eight passes. If
you take a play here and a play there, and it’s
a different ballgame. They controlled the ball
with their running game. We had only one possession in the first quarter. That should tell you
something.”

Fast action keeps children
interested in fishing
fishing
trends
GREG PERALTA
Cooler (relative to what it has been)
weather has dropped the water temperature a
couple of degrees and fishing has improved
significantly (especially if you use live
shrimp for bait). This week, I fished with
my friend Hugh and his grandsons Roman
and Nico. We have been fishing together for
many years. As a matter of fact, two of my
prize possessions are pictures that Roman
and Nico drew after one of our fishing trips.
They are great kids that are growing up very
quickly. It makes me happy that they want to
fish every time they visit Hugh.
We met at the boat landing late in the
afternoon. It was very windy and off in the
outdoor life
21
distance dark clouds were looming. So we
decided to stay in a small creek and fish
with live shrimp. The tide was low and it
only took a few casts to top off with bait. We
then moved to a wind sheltered creek and
pin anchored the skiff in a shallow channel
between two oyster bars. Roman and Nico
cast shrimp (on lead head jigs) into the channel. Trout, Redfish and Black Drum provided
steady action throughout the afternoon. We
never caught a really big fish but it did not
seem to matter to the boys (or Hugh).
In my experience, when fishing with
children, fast action keeps them interested.
Now is a great time to take kids fishing.
Shrimp are abundant and the creeks are full
of fish that will readily eat them. So look for
a late afternoon low tide and take the kids
fishing after school. You will be rewarded
with memories (and pictures) that will last a
lifetime.
